    He's a very bad tackler... fans use the excuse of his injury being the reason for his inconsistent play this year, yet never mention how he was hurt.... completely whiffing on a tackle on Crowder in week 1 resulting in a 60 plus yard TD. 😅

     

    No idea how he was a pro bowler this year. I wouldn't pay him at this point, but the fact that Addison is still on the team tells me they'll pay Edmunds a hefty contract extension he won't deserve... unless he has a gigantic season. 

    I think that is the play he actually got hurt on. It was a shoulder issue. But you can see when he goes to make that tackle his shoulder kinda dies. I’m not high on Edmunds but I do remember thinkin he looks like he just threw something out 🤷🏻‍♂️

    It was actually the then named Washington Redskins who helped ruin him by letting him play hurt & exacerbate his injury.  He never played for the team called the Washington Football Team. 

     

    Yeah I know bruh. But if I called it the skins one of these #######s woulda told me it is now the the wtt 🤷🏻‍♂️

    5,100 yards 46 tds 70% completion 680 pass attempts 480 completions. 

    Undefeated. Going to be such an amazing year. So much fun. 

    I think you’re pretty close. I think over 5,000 pass yards but I think he isn’t going to have as many rushing yards but will have the same amount of rush TDs if not more as last year. I think this team comes out on fire and never looks back. Diggs n Sanders are both dogs Beasley is a perfect compliment with star back and the heart of our D intact we hit closer to 2019 form and this team goes off.

    JB signed for $3.75M w Raiders, does his agent suck or did we not want him at all?  Hard to believe Daboll and Josh would support paying an older receiver $2.25M more than Smoke, plus don't we have dead money in there too?

     

    Im baffled by this move.  Two years of chemistry w Josh, a multiple 1000 yd NFL proven receiver and we let him walk because we dont think he's worth $3.75M?

     

    This has to be injury concern.  There's no other explanation.

    Yeah I didn’t know the #’s that’s crazy. First thing I thought when we released his was wonder if we tried to restructure. Maybe they are just looking for alittle more of then dog that sanders has. And I’m sure seeing that the offense was just as good without him made them feel they needed something different. But I am shocked they wouldn’t restructure and keep him for that amount. Damn. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    You wanted to roll with Fromm as the only back up?  I mean this is essentially what they paid Barkley for last year.  How much more confidence is there in this team not being completely screwed if Allen misses a few games now?

    No I get it. It’s cheap. N it would all fall apart but if you’re already planning on Allen to get hurt you can’t plan when. And if he gets hurt in the playoffs Trubisky ain’t saving us. Just think the money could have been put into another piece. But I understand the move.

  6. What is the deal with Kenny Stills? I’m pretty sure we only took over his contract that ended this year but I also read an article that said Beane has been on Stills for awhile and if Brown is cut or does walk is Stills an option? I think he could be a nice addition. I would have liked if we used him in the playoffs with Brown. But if we can’t keep brown is Stills an option? 

  7. Do you think players such as Milano, would take maybe a 5 year contract into a 6 year contract for example and have the 2021 year lower to help teams with the cap then add the difference into the next 5 years? I’ve heard FAs might take 1 year deals to build super teams but what about extended team friendly contracts for the first year that give both sides what they want? Has anything like this ever been done before?

  8. ***** I hope not. Just like Brady was To Manning and so many others. I don’t wanna be the team that coulda won 5 rings if “Insert Brady Here” 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️. I also think Allen can become Mahomes’ Brady!!!  🤞🤞🤞

    1) Defensive coaching. The defensive coaching staff did a good job overall against the Ravens. The same was not true of the playoff games against the Colts or the Chiefs. I understand that Frank Reich and Andy Reid are two of the best offensive minds in the game. But make no mistake: the Bills' defensive coaching staff was beaten like a rented mule in both those games. Reich's 4th down call is a good example of that. That would have been an easy touchdown, had the Colts players executed. They didn't, and turned the ball over on downs. Periodic execution failures by Colts players obscured just how badly the Bills' defensive coaching staff was dominated by Reich and his offensive coaches. The Chiefs didn't have that problem. Of the 7 Chiefs drives which didn't end in kneel downs, 5 resulted in touchdowns, and another went for a field goal. The total dominance of the Chiefs offense over the Bills' defense was alone sufficient to determine the outcome of the game. Defensive coaching might be this team's single greatest weakness.

     

    Solution: Above all, this idea of "soft zone" needs to die. The idea of "let them move the chains with the underneath stuff" needs to no longer be tolerated. In place of these things, I'd like to see more defensive gameplans like the one this coaching staff prepared against the Patriots a year or two ago. I'm thinking of the game where Brady and the Patriots offense were totally stymied. The Patriots won that game anyway due to a blocked punt and the total domination of the Patriots defense over the Bills offense. 

     

    2) Defensive line. McDermott and Beane have made a considerable investment in the defensive line, in terms of both salary cap space and draft picks. The defensive line was dominated by a (very good) Colts OL, as well as by the Chiefs OL. I get that both Rivers and Mahomes tend to get rid of the ball quickly. But during the course of the regular season the defensive line also failed to justify the very considerable resource investment made in it.

     

    Solution: draft a pass rusher. Also sign or draft a 1 tech DT. Any existing DL who isn't contributing to the level of his salary needs to either be cut outright, or else given a massive pay cut. None of Hughes, Addison, or Murphy should make next year what they made this year. The world will keep spinning even if we lose all three.

     

    3) Edmunds. Edmunds had a good game against the Ravens, but did not play well against the Colts or the Chiefs. Great physical tools, but struggles with the mental side of the game. Also I recently read that opposing QBs have a 130 QB rating when targeting Edmunds. People are talking about letting Milano walk in order to have the cap space to re-sign Edmunds, or to allow an OLB position to open up for Edmunds. I don't understand the logic of letting go of a guy who's produced (Milano) in order to keep a guy who hasn't (Edmunds). Edmunds has had three years here for the light to go on. At this point we need to see him for what he produces, not for what his potential is or what his draft status was. 

     

    Solution: re-sign Milano. Wait until next year to do anything about upgrading Edmunds, because the Bills don't have the picks or cap space to address the problem this year.

     

    4) Offensive line. During the regular season it was normal for the offensive line to do a good job of pass protection, but a bad job of run blocking. On a running play all it takes is one OL to lose his individual battle, and then you have a defender who's not where he's supposed to be. That will often spoil the play. The OL seemingly took its level of play down a notch or two during the playoffs. The run blocking was bad as usual. But the pass protection was often bad as well, especially against the Colts and Chiefs.

     

    Solution: Upgrade at least one OG spot. Ideally both. The Bills should not be afraid to use a 2nd or 3rd round pick on an OG. You could easily justify using both those picks on OGs. (And pray that at least one of those picks works out better than Cody Ford!)

     

    5) Running back. To a certain extent I think the Bills' RBs are getting blamed for the offensive line failures. That said, there's also some truth to the argument that the Bills don't have a speed guy at that position, and would benefit from one. However, the Bills do not have the draft picks or salary cap space to make a major investment here. Those picks need to be invested on the offensive and defensive lines.

     

    Solution:  Christian Wade (rugby guy) has been on the roster two full years now. Surely he has learned the game of football and the Bills' offense. Unless some better option comes along, they should sign him to the regular season roster, and sprinkle him in on returns, trick plays, and occasional running plays.

     

    6) Tight end. With Buffalo's five best WRs all injured for the Chiefs game, it would have been nice to have had a good TE to pick up some of the slack. While Knox has his moments he is not an upper tier TE.

     

    Solution: The Bills probably don't have the resources to address this problem this offseason, so they might need to wait a year to deal with this. Ideally Knox improves significantly during that year, and this problem goes away.

     

     

    Agree with all of it. I’d have liked to see Frazier go. His scheme against the Ravens was perfect tho. It did hurt us losing star and we need to cut all that dead FA weight from last year on the DLine. And the entire OL needs reworked as well. We need to be able to get pressure with a 4 man rush. And Edmunds isnt a solution to anything. Milano is key. Edmunds is being named to pro bowls is mind boggling. The only thing he does well is chase after someone who got past him. He’s made a few big stops but someone who has all the physical gifts should be making triple the # of plays he’s making. I don’t remember any picks and hardly any sacks. A pro bowl MLB should have both. Plus he’s not even better then Milano in coverage. I will really look at McBeane sideways if they give more money to Edmunds and don’t sign Milano. ***** I will look at McBeane sideways for not signing Milano. But I’ve already done that. In Beanes press conference he said we’d love to have him back but he has earned the right to see what he can get in FA. Which means they can’t pay him what he is going to make. We should franchise tag him until next year when hopefully the cap goes back up.

    Ay. McDermott just finished year 4 as a HC. 

    Just like a draft pick , he'll grow and learn from this.  They anticipated the wrong things,  made bad adjustments and just had an off night. 

    I'm very confident McD , Dabol , Frazier and every position coach grows from this. 

     

    They had a bad day at the office. 🤷‍♂️

    I agree. He went back to being conservative which is what he is comfortable with. I love McBeane. It was just mind boggling to see how ***** both schemes were. But they will learn and hopefully grow. Josh also fell back into his trying to do to much. Which hopefully he works out of his system in year 4.

    did we really change what we did? We sometimes would bring an extra blocker or two in to help against the blitz this year. But not sure we did anything too different. 

    Yeah most our packages had that extra blocker or 2. I mean maybe not even play but it was mostly just the O line against the chiefs

    Why did the Bills go from attacking WRs at the line of scrimmage in the Bal game to letting Mahomes pick us apart... Again, in soft zone. Allowing Kelce a free release into whatever soft spot he wanted.

    That was one of the main things I saw about how to disrupt the chiefs I was baffled to. But Hyde said after when asked they wanted us to not miss jamming him then have someone outta position. The coaching staff really went back to their conservative ways in this one. But hopefully they learn

    Having both these players make a difference would be a great start to making a weakness a strength. With Ford, he has come off an offseason surgery both his years so I really hope he can come in a new man and vindicate his draft status.

    Agreed. Defense missed star this year. He’s not a stat guy but he constantly takes up 2 blockers and is decent in run support. Ford on the other hand needs to do better.
